"Sweet! I like shiny! ^^ And I like the tome! A lot! I'll make sure to use it!" The boy beamed before looking to his parents. "One more? Really!?" He asked with a wide grin. Taini nodded. "Yes, you should come along!" Grasping his hand, she walked him out to the shed, with the boy practically bouncing beside her.
Ai, curious, followed behind them with her eyebrows raised. "Wonder what they got him..."

Inside the room was what looked to be a small alchemy lab, filled with state of the art equipment and books filled with notes, as well as many empty ones with quill pens abound. Throughout the room were ingredients in apothecary bottles, some legal and safe, some probably not the first, and definitely not the second.
"Impressive." Irvine spoke.

"....." The boy's mouth dropped as far as it could go, unable to believe what he saw. "Th-thi-this... is for me...?"
"Yup. You're really serious about alchemy... we figured, why not? As long as your safe with it, of course. Don't want you having missing limbs or eyes or whatever." Taini smiled as she ruffled the boy's hair.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!" Glenn squealed as he hugged both of his parents tightly. "I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU!"
Serenade peeked inside, then humphed. "You're spoiling the poor boy."
Ai only sweatdropped, also astonished with the sight. "...Yup."
Elena also creeped up behind the boy, holding something small. "S-sorry, I forgot to get you this..." She mumbled as she lifted up a small half fox/half wolf puppy. "I found it this morning running around... I wanna give it to you..."
Taini widened her eyes, sweat dropping, "A puppy...? Oh no."

"Better not decided to fuse it with his cousin using alchemy..." Derrick groaned, frowning. "Well, kiddo, what are you going to name it?" He asked his son as they started shuffling back toward the house to eat.
Irvine sighed. "If he does, I'm killing you." He whispered to Derrick. Why Derrick? Who knows?
"Maybe now you can make Mac n cheese good now!" Mai-Fei giggled.

"W-we're keeping the thing?" Taini asked, knowing that it was assumed to be yes. Glenn took the puppy from Elena, smiling. "Thank you Auntie Elena!" He chirped as he looked at the puppy, who whimpered, automatically taking to Glenn. "I wanna name it Gary!"
"Y-you're kidding... I don't think you should."
"No! I wanna name it Gary! I think Gary is a cool name! And I already make good Mac N Cheese! You keep ruining it!" Glenn cried out as he dragged the puppy inside the home.

"I do not! Auntie Taini, he's blaming me cuz he can't make Mac N cheese!" Mai-Fei cried, hugging her aunt's leg. "Why is he being such a meanie poopie head?" She asked.
Irvine laughed. "Now can't we all get along?" He asked, though he had no intention of stepping in.
"Huh? What about Mac N Cheese?" John asked, blinking.

"Well, I think that Glenn's just having a bad day." Taini replied as she hugged Mai-Fei, chuckling. "MOM!!!" Glenn cried out. "YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TAKE HER SIDE!"
"Oh, it's neither of you. You should try again!" She told him. "Show the entire family!"
"Fine! I will!" The boy chirped as he let go of the puppy, half losing interest in it already. He then made a circle and looked at everyone. "Watch! This time Mai-Fei isn't gonna ruin it!"
Serenade merely chuckled. "I think he's been trying to transmute Mac N Cheese and it has been failing." She explained to her husband.
"Oh boy..." Ai muttered. "Something's gonna fail."

"I just hope nobody gets hurt because of this..." Irvine sighed, sitting down and picking up his daughter. "Ai, what do you think the result of all this is going to be?" He asked while Mai-Fei squirmed.
"Ohh, ohh, put bacon in it!" John said, jumping around and probably being a bigger distraction than the boy's cousin.

"H-hey! Grandp-"
BAM!
Of course it was too late.
What revealed was...
Cheesy Spaghetti.
With no bacon.
It had instead, brussel sprouts.
"EWWWWWWWW!" The boy screamed. "GRANDPA! LOOK AT WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!"

"BRUSSELS SPROUTS NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" John said, picking up the boy and running him around the entire house in circles and circles. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He shouted repeatedly, being a general pest.
"Dammit... Dad..." Irvine groaned.
"Daddy, why is grandpa stupid?"

"...He was born stupid. Why did I marry him again...?" Serenade sighed, answering Mai-Fei in Irvine's stead.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Glenn continued to scream before Taini's tail, stiff as a board, interfered with John's running, causing him to somehow trip. Halfway down the the fall, Taini caught the boy in her arms as John continued to trip.
"...Dad... stop." She said. "So I say s'mores! Now that the cake and ice cream and dinner are out of the way!" She grinned. "That and a bonfire!" Just then she placed Glenn onto the ground, who rubbed his eyes.
"Yeah!" Serenade pumped her fist.
"Bonfire! Awesome! I want to make some hotdogs too!" Elena cried.
Ai merely sighed, wondering why she married into this family in the first place. At least Irvine was normal... Not really.
Glenn suddenly felt a hug from behind, but he realized it was none other than his older sister. "Happy birthday Glenny! Has it been fun?"
"Y-yeah, Ela! I wish I could always have birthdays like this!"
"You probably will!"
~~~~~~~
A week had passed since then. Glenn was awakened by the sunlight filtering through the glass that was his window. Yawning, he opened his golden eyes and stretched. "...Mm... Sleepy..." He yawned, before turning over and going back to sleep. "Sleepy sleepy... Go to school later..."

"You can't stay asleep, kiddo..." Derrick said, picking up the boy and shaking him. "You can't be late on your first day of school." He said. "That's a rule above all else, okay?" He asked, sighing. "Come on, wake up, wake up, wake up." He said, shaking his head.
~~~~~
"Mommy, I made breakfast!" Mai-Fei said early that morning, awakening Irvine.
"Time is it?" He asked, groaning.

All it did was shake a limp boy, whose head was thrown back as drool seeped down the crack of his mouth. Taini arrived into the room, blinking. "Haven't waken up Glenny yet, huh Dear?" She giggled before holding up a warm, fresh pumpkin muffin.
Just then Glenn's eyes snapped open and he was already up and dressed. "SCHOOL SCHOOL SCHOOL!" He could only say as Ela watched him scramble around. "Hehe, your first day of school is going to be fun Glenny!"
"I know I know I know!!! SCHOOL!" He cried as he undressed in front of his parents, not giving a damn about who watched, then slipped some clothes on, followed by his shoes. "I can't wait!!!" He grinned as he swiped the muffin and munched on it.
"-.- Who said that muffin was for you, punk?" Taini asked.
"Uh..." Glenn merely sweat dropped.
~~~~~
"Breakfast...?" Good lord... Ai thought as she rolled over. "Don't know... don't care... can we just tell her to go back to bed? It's too early..." She mumbled, opening an eye to double check the time. It was only 5:30 AM. "GARAAAH... too early! If I was chief, I'd have to be up thirty minutes beforehand..." She grumbled.

Irvine sat up, deciding not to bother his wife, or upset his child. "So, kiddo, what did you make for us?" He asked.
"I made a chicken biscuit for mommy!" Mai-Fei said. "And daddy can have cereal and jooce." She continued.
"..." Irvine had a dull look on his face. "Thanks." He said, taking the sandwich and putting it on Ai's stomach. "For you." He grumbled.
~~~~
"... Come on..." Derrick said, taking what was left of the muffin and returning it to Taini. "Apologize for stealing from your mother." He said.

"S-sorry Mom... thought it was for me..." Glenn frowned as Taini sighed, giving up. She handed the muffin back. "There's more downstairs. You can have it. But we gotta get going. We're going to be late!"
"How are we going to go?"
"Teleport."
"Kay! I'm ready!" The boy cried.
"Derrick? Did you want to come along to see our son off for his first day?"
~~~~~
"Hm? Smells good..." Ai opened an eye, seeing the biscuit. "Wow, you really made this for me?" She asked, a little worried as to how she could have made it.

"Yup! I read the box and put it on the chicken too!" Mai-Fei said, holding up a box of baking mix which she had used to make biscuits and breaded chicken.
'... I can't eat this.' Irvine thought.
"Daddy, why aren't you eating your cereal and jooce?" Mai-Fei asked.
~~~~~
"Of course! I don't want to miss any of this." Derrick said, smiling and picking up the boy. "Well, off to the school!" He said.

"Huh... this is... pretty impressive..." Ai mumbled as she took a bite, now really surprised. It was pretty tasty, after all. "You should probably eat it anyway, Irvy... don't want to upset her."
~~~~~
"Yay!"
Taini then grasped the two and teleported them. The boy was dropped off, seeing many kids, most of them with pointed ears. "...Hey...! I don't have pointy ears... :(."
"Yes, that is because you aren't an elf. You should probably get along though." She told the boy as she hugged him tightly. "You be good and don't show off too much! I love you very much, sweetie." She then kissed his forehead, only to have a hug in response. "Love you too Mom!"

"....." Irvine was still silent, not wanting to look at the cereal. It was yellow blocks of sweetened cereal, all of it covered in reddish purple liquid, which was quickly becoming goop.
"It's captain crunch and cranberry grape jooce!" Mai-Fei said happily.
~~~~~
"Just get along with everyone, okay, kiddo!" Derrick said with a smile, hugging the boy as well. "We'll be back for you once the class ends, won't we?" He asked the boy with the same smile.

Ai couldn't help but die of laughter on the inside, so she contained herself. "Come on Irvine, it can't be that bad.... she made it special for you, you know!"
~~~~~
"I will don't worry!" Glenn grinned as he hugged the man. "Yup, we will be here for you soon! Be good!" She replied as she disappeared with the man, getting some weird looks from children.
Glenn immediately ran in, with Ela following behind him like a lost puppy. "Wow, this looks big!" She chirped as Glenn nodded, walking over to find his class. He noticed that a lot of the children were taller than him, making him feel a lot smaller than he was.

One girl with blue hair was sitting at the back of the room, staring at her paper blankly, just trying to avoid all the other students.
~~~~~
"... But I... Hang on, I'll go eat it in the bathroom." Irvine said, running to the bathroom and quickly trying to figure something else to do with the so called meal so he wouldn't have to eat it.
